A woman came out of her house and saw 3 old men with long white beard sitting in her front yard. She did not recognize them. She said," I don't think I know you. But you must be hungry, please come in and have something to eat." " Is the man of the house home?" They asked. "No," She said."He's out." "Then we can't not come in." They replied.
In the evening, when her huand came home, she told him what had happend. " Go tell them I'm home and invite them in." He said. The woman went out and invited them in. " We do not go into the house together." They replied. "Why is that?" She wanted to know. One of the old men explained," His name is wealth," he said and ponited to one of his friends and said, pointing to another one, "He is success, and I'm love. Now go in and discuss with your huand which one of us you want in your home."
The woman went in and told her huand what was said. Her huand was overjoyed. "How nice," he said, "Since that is the case, let us invite wealth. Let him come in, fill our home with wealth." His wife disagreed," My dear, why don't we invite success?" Their daughter in law was listening from another corner of the house. She jumped in with her own suggestion," Would not be betterto invite love? Our home would then be filled with love." "Let's hear our daughter law's advice." said huand to his wife," Go out and invite love to be our guest."
The woman went out and asked the 3 old men, " Which one of you is love? Please come in and be our guest." Love got up as she walking towards the house. The other two also got up and followed him. Surprised lasy asked," Wealth and success, I only invite love, why are you coming in?" The old man replied together," If you had invited wealth or success, the other two of us would have stayed out. But you invited love, wherever he goes, we go with him. Where there is love, there is also wealth and success."
